This is like a huge fluffy muffin in a tin. Hence the name I gave it. A big, fat muffin, with hardly any fat, except for the fat juicy blueberries. And that’s the only fat I wanted in this cake.

And it may not seempossible, but every mouthful still melts in your mouth with blueberry and coconut flavours so perfectly paired together, every mouthful is just pure joy.

So soft, just like a muffin. So fluffy, just like a muffin. So perfect…yes, just like muffin.


 


And the subtleness of coconut gives it such a buttery flavour, without any butter. Yep. No butter in this cake = no guilt whatsoever. How? Read on…

Apple sauce is like a magic potion. And with the right mixture of greek yoghurt and vanilla extract, you don’t even miss butter. It’s totally not necessary.

Of course, if you want to add butter instead, you can, but it’s perfect the way it is.

This cake is a version of the Coconut & Vanilla Blueberry Swirl Bundt Cake from a few months ago, when I just started sharing recipes on Instagram. That recipe has a killer Blueberry Syrup that would go amazing with this cake.
